Title: “Standardizing and scaling up 3D cell culture models

Abstract:  When it comes to modeling human development and disease, traditional 2D cell culture models are often unable to capture complex biological properties observed in vivo. Animal models attempt to overcome these inadequacies but involve a significant investment of time and resources while not accurately capturing human development and disease states. Cells grown in 3D more closely mimic in vivo behavior in tissues and organs. These models are gaining increased importance for attaining in vivo-like conditions to study developmental cues and therapeutic possibilities This seminar will review methods of 3D cell culture and highlight technologies that allow standardization and scale up of 3D cell culture environments.
